Definitely not beginners luck, some skill goes into picking out the mares that will end up being blue hens

Re: Is This Beginners Luck ?
the real question is how many of those 8 hens are TB? You had mentioned pacer and it seems 95% of the pacer mares I retire are hens.

This probably happens to no-one else but me, but I've had quite a few blue hens who nicked A's and A-'s and were bred to the top stallions and they produced claimers or solids. It has definitely happened to me.

Re: Is This Beginners Luck ?
Good for you Frank! I also retired around 20 from my newbie barn. Found one star (and a couple of B+ not checked). Need to work on my luck in the future!Frank Chilton wrote: ↑3 years ago Since the end of season 55 i have retired 20 fillies, of those 20, 8 blue hens...8 star.....4 formids.
